Friday open thread: What should become of the open thread?

I know there’s much to discuss about politics this week – a budget, an ethics bill, a veto of the ethics bill, a potential override of a veto of the ethics bill, moves against David Paterson and rampant partisan commentary on the AFC Championship (go Jets!)

But Casey and I are sitting here in our office talking about what changes, if any, are merited on the blog going forward. An end-of-day roundup? This open thread? Some kind of best-of post at the end of each day or week? More video?
